The door of the courtyard house has been welded dead

a new Year.

For Ouyang Yi, there are new changes.

Compared to when you were young and had nothing to do but eat and wait for death, your mental outlook changes after you have a job.

Although the area was restricted and he was separated from his wife, he was able to receive a salary. This was the first time he received a salary in several years.

The amount was not much, just over 30 yuan, not even half the price of a watch, but he was still happy. This was money he earned through his own hard work, not the money he got from his sister-in-law to support the couple in Anjia. It had a different meaning.

After cleaning the gun, Li Xuewu looked at Ouyang Yi, holding the dozens of dollars, counting them over and over again. From the time he started cleaning the gun to the time he finished cleaning it, he was still counting. There was something strange in his eyes.

Greedy for money?

Not really. He looks gentle and refined, and his upbringing is obviously good. It’s unlikely that he has never seen a few dozen dollars.

Looking around with his head tilted, Li Xuewu was also short of money. After buying the collective housing, he had half of his monthly salary left after the Finance Department deducted it. However, he was short of money, but he did not love money as much as this new colleague.

This is a very bad habit. Once people attach too much importance to money, they will easily lose themselves.

"Hey, Secretary Wu, can you help me buy a roast duck at noon? I want to send it to Jiang Defu. Oh, and your brother, too. Buy two! Please buy two!"

No matter what, Jiang Defu helped get the job, and Li Xuewen probably also contributed. Misunderstandings are misunderstandings, and once the misunderstanding is resolved, the favor should be returned, and Ouyang Yi will not be stingy.

Although the couple are still living apart temporarily, as long as the suspicion is cleared, they can bring An Xin home and the family will be reunited.

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and looked at Ouyang Yi with more and more surprise. Just now he was muttering in his heart that Ouyang Yi was a money-loving person, but he immediately took out half of his salary just to give someone two roast ducks, which seemed like he didn't care much about money.

"My brother doesn't need it. Jiang Defu is your relative. You can give it to him, but it's better not to~!"

Looking at the twenty yuan on his desk, Li Xuewu shook his head decisively.

Ouyang Yi's situation was rather special. Li Xuewen had already explained this to Li Xuewu, and there was nothing he could do about it as he could not go out.

As for giving gifts, this is not popular in the Red Star Factory now. As a younger brother, he also knows his elder brother and knows that his elder brother will definitely not accept the gifts, so it would be a waste of money even if he buys them.

"In the past, to get things done in the factory, you had to use connections and backdoors, or rely on private gifts~!"

“But~!”

"These people were later rounded up by the investigation team sent down from above. Do you understand?"

He put the bullets into the magazine one by one, pulled the bolt with a click, chambered the gun, and turned off the safety, and Li Xuewu said without any emotion.

The sound of pulling the bolt indirectly told Ouyang Yi the future fate of those people he mentioned.

Ouyang Yi smiled awkwardly and subconsciously took a half step back. All these social skills were taught to him by his good brother An Tai, but he did not expect that they had no effect at the Red Star Factory.

"The current factory has had a complete change of leadership, and no one likes to do this, so you'd better not do it~!"

After saying that, Li Xuewu glanced at the money on the table and shook his head expressionlessly. The good thing about Ouyang Yi is that he listens to advice. If he still doesn't understand after hearing so much, he would be a real fool.

"We don't look at nepotism anymore, we only look at work ability. I have a head injury, so I can't do other things. I can only do these jobs. You are different. The secretary is protecting you, and my brother also wants to protect you, which proves that you are capable."

The pistol was tucked into the holster at his waist. The voice was emotionless, but Ouyang Yi still felt warm in his heart when he heard it.

No other unit dared to hire this person, but only this unit dared to hire him. This has proved that what Li Xuewu said is true.

"I……!"

After the excitement, Ouyang Yi's face was full of bitterness.

Ouyang Yi has the abilities, and his pride comes from his abilities. However, guarding a hazardous goods warehouse as a warehouse keeper, no matter how great his abilities are, he cannot fully display them.

"Dingling bell~!"

The phone on the table rang at the right time, and Li Xuewu immediately picked up the phone and answered it.

To be honest, Li Xuewen's brother's scarred face looked a little scary, and it was usually impossible to read any emotional changes from his face, but Ouyang Yi could feel that Officer Xiao Wu was also a pretty good person. According to his brother-in-law, he had a wide range of friends and knew everyone on the street. Among the people arrested by the security department before, there were many former friends of Officer Xiao Wu.

But unfortunately, I suffered this kind of injury.

"Okay, I get it~!"

After hanging up the phone, Li Xuewu glanced at Ouyang Yi beside him and shook his head.

"I'm not here to collect supplies. Wait a minute, the secretary will come over. He should be looking for you. Get ready~!"

"Find me?"

Ouyang Yi couldn't help but think of the night a few months ago when his life was hanging by a thread, and that young and somewhat excessive secretary and factory director.

"Our factory has had spies enter it and has also been sabotaged by them. Secretary Li once personally cut the throat of a spy downstairs in the office building. Everyone in the factory knows that he has a connection with the investigation department and is not targeting you personally, so you don't have to worry."

Perhaps because Ouyang Yi looked unhappy, Li Xuewu told him about Secretary Li's glorious past.

"He's killed anyone?"

Ouyang Yi's face changed. His first reaction was that this young man, who was about the same age as him, was even more ruthless than he had imagined.

"This is a life-and-death struggle. If I don't kill him, he will die, just like me~!"

Pointing to the scar on his forehead, Li Xuewu took out the key from the drawer. When Secretary Li came, he would go and open the door.

In the office, Ouyang Yi, who was originally puzzled, now felt a little disappointed. It turned out that before him, this seemingly ordinary factory had experienced so many things.

That's just like what Li Xuewen said, restricting him here is indeed protecting him. If he came here with another identity, what would be waiting for him would probably be the sharp knife in the secretary's hand.

……

"How are you doing lately? Are you used to it? ... Why do I feel like you're a little afraid of me?"

After inspecting the work in the sewing workshop downstairs, Li Feng wandered to the hazardous materials warehouse upstairs. Looking at Ouyang Yi, whom he hadn't seen for several months, he felt something strange.

Li Feng looked at himself and didn't look like a murderer. His clothes also fit him well. But he felt like Jiang Defu's brother-in-law had contracted his PTSD.

"No, no, no, I'm fine. I just got here and am getting familiar with the place. Officer Xiao Wu is very responsible and he introduced all the work here to me~!"

Li Feng's appearance was not strange, and he certainly did not have the murderous aura that only a murderer would have. But Ouyang Yi had heard that Secretary Li had personally killed a spy, and he always felt uncomfortable all over.

Even if he was not a spy, any serious international student would think it's better to keep a low profile when meeting someone like Li Feng.

"Well, I also learned some of your education and knowledge from Xuewen. This time I came here to see if you are used to living here, and to see if you can make full use of this knowledge~!"

"If you leave it like this for a long time, you will gradually forget those important things. This is not good. It is a waste of talent and your knowledge~!"

The Red Star Factory is not a chemical factory. Li Feng did keep Ouyang Yi here with the intention of protecting him, but just eating and not working, to be precise, is not making full use of resources. Secretary Li feels that it is a pity.

Li Feng was worried about placing chemical talents in other places, so he wanted to find a place in his own factory where he could display his talents.

Secretary Li's words were very frank. Just as Jiang Defu described, he always liked to get straight to the point without beating around the bush. This gradually made Ouyang Yi's nervousness disappear.

"I studied petrochemical engineering abroad. After returning to China, I worked at a petrochemical research institute, not far from our factory!"

Ouyang Yi didn't want to look after the warehouse in the first place, and he didn't know whether he could enter the research institute of the Red Star Factory, but he knew that he had to fight for it on his own.

"Petrochemicals, can I regard it as liquid fuel or something like that?"

Li Feng held his chin and scratched his temples, and he actually smiled a little. Yes, at least in Ouyang Yi's eyes, Secretary Li was smiling.

“Sort of, all in the same category?”

"What about rocket liquid fuel?" (End of this chapter)
